In fact, few of us consider Morocco to be a destination for gastronomic tourism. However, Moroccan cuisine, a rich fusion of Berber, Arabic and Andalusian cuisines, is […]
Have a Happy and “Heart-Healthy” Valentine’s Day!

Good and bad choices on the holiday table
All holiday food are not created equal. Here are a few good replacements you should look for on the holiday table: Prefer simply prepared meats: This year stay away from stuffed turkey and rich sauces.

A festive menu for diabetics
We are concluding our trilogy of menus for people with specific dietary needs, with a specially designed festive menu for diabetics. There’s no reason why you cannot celebrate just because you are diabetic, if you pay attention to a few points:

There are desserts in Italian Christmas tradition that are perfect for those who are gluten-intolerant (celiac disease): These are homemade egg white and almond or hazelnut-based confections that will please […]
